Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort Chapter 696

Just as the strength in Mu Zhi's hands was about to increase, hurried footsteps came from outside.

Mu Zhi and Wei Yuanwei immediately looked at each other.

When the door was frantically pushed open, Mu Zhi had already brought Wei Yuanwei up the roof beam!

"Did you see it wrong?" The flirtatious voice of a woman was heard the moment the door was opened. The concubine took a glance at the room and said cautiously.

However, the imperial physician standing at the side had a tight frown on his face. He looked at the room and said with a heavy voice, "Just now, I clearly felt that there was someone in this room!"

"You must have seen wrongly. Today is the emperor's birthday, and this place is so remote. Who would come?" It wasn't as if the concubines weren't worried. If the emperor knew about her and Imperial Physician Shu's situation, then with his violent personality, he'd definitely tear them apart.

Furthermore, it would be even harder to explain it to the Prince An s.

"I hope so. Let's go!" After saying this, Imperial Physician Shu looked around the room once more before speaking in a low voice to his concubine. "When you return to the palace, you must be very careful. Don't let anyone find out where you are!"

Li Jun nodded, her bright eyes full of caution.

The two of them then walked out of the room.

Squatting in the middle of the beam in the room, Wei Yuanwei's clear and cold eyes looked at the serious expression on Mu Zhi's face. Then, he looked at the window that was opened not too far away, and a crafty look quickly slipped past the corner of her eye.

Taking advantage of the moment when Mu Zhi's attention was on the two people.

Although the sound produced was not loud, it was enough for the two people who were already walking out to hear it.

Imperial Physician Shu and his wife's faces changed drastically as they turned around.

Mu Zhi tried to stop him but it was already too late.

Wei Yuanwei sneered at Mu Zhi: "I've discovered that you're even more afraid of being discovered than I am!"

With that, Wei Yuanwei used a bit of force to push away from Mu Zhi's restraints, and with a leap, she jumped down from the roof beam onto the table, and then jumped out of the window and into the dense gra.s.s.

At the same time, in order to not be discovered by them, Mu Zhi directly broke through the roof and left.

Imperial Physician Shu and Imperial Concubine Li's expressions became extremely unsightly the moment they saw the two escaping men inside the room.

"Who are these two people?" Her concubine grabbed onto Imperial Physician Shu's clothes worriedly. "Could it be the emperor's men?"

"Impossible, it's the emperor's words. He won't run away the moment he sees us!" At the same time, Imperial Physician Shu clenched his fists tightly as he watched the two escape, "Go back to your room first, I'll report to Prince An right away!"

This palace was truly remote, after Wei Yuanwei jumped out of the window, her body quickly rolled into the gra.s.s. Without the light shining on him, Wei Yuanwei completely disappeared into the darkness.

After Wei Yuanwei landed steadily in the gra.s.s, he maintained her squatting posture.

Because she knew that the person who had escaped from the rooftop had not gone far, and was definitely searching for her somewhere.

If she moved, wouldn't that person just happen to notice her tracks?

Wanting her, Wei Yuanwei, to surrender without a fight was simply a dream!

Fortunately, Cang Chu had learned a bit whenhee was teaching Su'er. Although he couldn't be as light as a swallow like Su'er, she still managed to grasp some basic skills!

After Mu Zhi left the rooftop, he quickly hid into a corner and paid attention to the direction that Wei Yuanwei went in. However, after he observed for a long time, he still did not make the slightest of movements.

But then his gaze fell on Imperial Physician Shu.

In the bustling Bright Moon Restaurant, everyone's attention was attracted by the beautiful and n.o.ble dancers on the stage.

He didn't notice that the seat at the top of the table had been emptied.

When Mu Zhi returned to his seat, the eunuchs and maids standing by the side immediately bowed.

Fu Lu, who was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, helped Mu Zhi to sit on the chair.

He then turned to a young eunuch beside him and said, "Your majesty has just drunk too much. Hurry up and boil some wine. Bring it over!"

The young eunuch had just left when a middle-aged man wearing a gorgeous blue python robe walked over. His resolute face was filled with concern as he stroked his black beard. "Your majesty, are you feeling better now?"

The drunk Mu Zhi raised his head from the table and revealed a drunk smile, he waved his hands: "I went out to blow the wind, I'm better now, thank you Uncle Huang for your concern!"

"The emperor spends his days meditating. Since he's drunk, why don't we go back early and rest?" The Prince An took the opportunity to ask.

Fu Lu also agreed, "That's right, Your Majesty, your alcohol tolerance is already not good, you've only drank a few cups and you're already drunk. Let this servant help you go back and rest?"

Mu Zhi's face was flushed red, his body looked boneless, he laid on the table, and it was as though he could not even stand up.

He was like a drunkard, devoid of any dignity or shrewdness from the emperor.

Under the persuasion of the other dukes and officials, Fu Lu finally took Mu Zhi and left the Bright Moon Restaurant.

When Mu Zhi returned to the Heart Nurturing Palace, the drunk look on his face instantly disappeared.

Those eyes that were filled with drunkenness immediately woke up, and suddenly shot out a bright ray of light from within his eyes.

At some point, several guards dressed in night attire had appeared behind him.

At this moment, he was respectfully standing behind Mu Zhi.

"Your majesty, as you have predicted, Prince An and Prince Lu have already secretly joined hands. On the surface, they seem incompatible on the surface, but they have long been recruiting for troops in a certain deep mountain, training their own armies!" One of the guards looked up and took the lead.

"These people who have one foot in the coffin are really worried. Ever since I ascended the throne, they have been thinking of ways to kill me!" Mu Zhi said coldly, his words filled with bone-piercing coldness.

"Your majesty, Prince An and Prince Lu have always been cautious. There are even more people in the harem who belong to the Prince An and Prince Lu!" Another guard added.

"Do you know what to do next?" Mu Zhi's demonic eyes were already filled with killing intent.

If he hadn't personally investigated this matter today, he probably wouldn't have known that Imperial Physician Shu was from the Prince An.

This old fox had probably already arranged for reinforcements to come when the previous emperor was still alive.

When the late emperor was still alive, he already had the heart to rebel, but that's also right, he was the one who s.n.a.t.c.hed the late emperor's throne from Mu Jin's father's hands.

Since he was able to ascend to the throne, his other uncles naturally wanted to follow suit and s.n.a.t.c.h the throne away from him.

He had only spent five years on the throne, and had only spent a short five years in actual contact with the palace. However, the old cunning foxes, like the Prince An, knew the palace like the back of their hands.
